Surgical Preparation

Isolated livers from fed rats were perfused for 1 h with a medium consisting of Krebs–Ringer bicarbonate buffer with added albumin and glucose. Rates of perfusate and bile flow, differences in [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and pH, and glucose and potassium efflux were measured. Rewarmed slices of liver taken before the surgical preparation and before the perfusion were found to be able to reverse a cation shift imposed by cold incubation. Slices of liver taken after one perfusion were not able to effect this expected cation transport. It is proposed that the perfusate used was not ideal as evidenced by the altered membrane function of slices after perfusion.

The effects of aniso-osmotically and amino-acid-induced cell-volume changes on bile flow and biliary taurocholate excretion were studied in isolated perfused rat liver. With taurocholate (100 microM) in the influent perfusate, hypo-osmotic exposure (225 mosmol/l) increased taurocholate excretion into bile and bile flow by 42 and 27% respectively, whereas inhibition by 32 and 47% respectively was observed after hyperosmotic (385 mosmol/l) exposure. The effects of aniso-moticity on taurocholate excretion into bile was observed throughout aniso-osmotic exposure, even after completion of volume-regulatory ion fluxes and were fully reversible upon re-exposure to normo-osmotic media. Hypo-osmotic cell swelling (225 mosmol/l) increased the Vmax. of taurocholate translocation from the sinusoidal compartment into bile about 2-fold. Also, cell swelling induced by glutamine and glycine stimulated both bile flow and biliary taurocholate excretion. There was a close relationship between the aniso-osmotically and amino-acid-induced change of cell volume and taurocholate excretion into bile. The data suggest that liver cell volume plays an important role in regulating bile-acid-dependent bile flow and biliary taurocholate excretion.

The effects of endothelin (ET) on portal pressure and bile secretion were examined using isolated perfused rat liver and rat hepatocyte preparations. ET-1 raised portal pressure dose dependently; administration at a high dose (10(-9) mol) induced a > 200% increase along with reduced bile flow and decreased secretion of bile acid and phospholipids. However, a low dose (10(-10) mol) of ET-1 brought about a < 100% portal pressure rise, enhanced both bile flow and excretion of bile acid and phospholipids, and significantly increased transfer of preadministered horseradish peroxidase (HRP) into bile. In addition, values for Ca2+ concentrations, examined by indo 1 fluorescence, were elevated in isolated hepatocytes after administration of ET-1. Papaverine suppressed the low-dose ET-1 stimulation effects on both portal pressure and bile secretion. Moreover, it also reduced the HRP excretion and suppressed intracellular Ca2+ release. This study demonstrated that ET-1 stimulates vesicular transport, probably via promotion of intracellular Ca2+ release, and, as a result, increases bile acid-dependent bile flow.
